JUST IN: Southampton in £1.7m Transfer Talks with Ipswich Town for Jaden Philogene
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Southampton are in advanced negotiations with Ipswich Town over a £1.7 million deal for winger Jaden Philogene. The 22-year-old, currently contracted to Hull City, is reportedly attracting serious interest as both clubs seek to strengthen ahead of the new Championship season.
Southampton, freshly promoted back to the Premier League, are eager to reinforce their attacking options. Philogene impressed last season with his flair, pace, and ability to unlock defences — traits that have made him a standout performer.
Ipswich Town are also keen to secure the talented wide man, but Southampton appear to be leading the race. Romano states that discussions are progressing positively, with personal terms not expected to be an obstacle.
If completed, the deal would be a significant boost to Southampton’s push to secure Premier League survival with youthful energy and creativity in the squad.
